[Csci551-talk] Packet drops in TA code

[Affan, Syed]

Hi all,
As brought to my notice by Michael Stephens (thanks :)), the TA code is
not dropping packets, if they are specified, only in the selectnSend()
function, in the clientNode.cpp. Please every body include that portion
in the code by modifying the line of code as follows:

Change
sendto(listenSockfd, &downloadReq,sizeof(SClntSegReq),0,(sockaddr
*)(&sendAddr), sizeof(sendAddr));	

TO:

		bool drop =  ( (float)rand()/(float)RAND_MAX <
myConfig.configInfo.pkt_drop ); // random drop
                if (drop) {
                    pktsDropped++;
                }
                else {
			sendto(listenSockfd,
&downloadReq,sizeof(SClntSegReq),0,(sockaddr *)(&sendAddr),
sizeof(sendAddr));	
    				pktsSent++;

                }

Best Regards,
Affan, Syed.
